Best Answer

Including rail storage yards, over 722 miles of track.

Another Answer

There are 842 miles of track in the New York subway system. This does include non-revenue track (maintenance etc). There are 468 passenger stations (ones that anyone can get to). It is one of the few rapid transit systems to run 365 days a year, 24 hours a day.

This answer does include the miles of track that are actually above ground, which is about 40% or about 337 miles. It was first built in 1869 by Alfred Ely Beach and extended just under 100 metres under Broadway. This small tunnel was never extended, although there were plans to incorporate it into a further tunnel. This original tunnel was demolished in the 1910's to help build the BMT Broadway Tunnel.
